By Sarah 3 Years, 10 Months Ago Well your still kind of young but then again you two sound a little more responsible then most your age so you might be able to handle it. But if your not sure your ready dont let him push you into it. Your the one who has to be pregnant 9 months and give birth. You should only get pregnant when your certain you both want the baby and your both ready to be parents. Just because your not ready now isnt a bad thing. You have tons of time to become a mother and when your ready u'll know.
If your not ready you could suggest to him that you go look at baby things and do research kind of. Look at what you need for a baby and kind of pick out what you would like to buy for it, write down all the prices and add it all up when your done. It might be that you both need to save a little while longer before you have the finances for the baby. I dont know your situation but that could hold him off a little and give you time to get ready while your saving up for the baby. Could work as a delaying tactic without really having to fight. You could also just be honest and tell him you dont feel like your ready for parenthood yet yourself. Hopefully he'll understand. Your only 19 and maybe u just need some time to finish growing up. Thats not saying your not mature or anything. THats just saying you maybe need some time to accopmish some of your life goals, to experience just being married, to settle into your new home, to establish yourself at your job...ect. Hes a little bit older so hes got a jump on you there and maybe he is ready but that doesnt mean you have to be. Take the time you need to be certain you are ready. Parenthood will be easier on both of you if its something you both want and are prepared for. Good luck.

By Kendra 3 Years, 10 Months Ago Please Enjoy your youth. I'm 19 as well and have 3 nieces and 3 nephews and let me tell ya, the best part about having a baby is naming it! haha. They are work! Your life will never be the same, which isn't always a bad thing.
You have so much life ahead of you, and no one can really tell you when YOU'RE ready to have children. But 21 or 22 is still a young parent. Travel, sleep in, go to the movies, do things for you, because after a baby comes-it's all about them. Also, watch the Baby Borrowers on Wednesdays night on NBC, if you think you're ready after that, then i'd say go for it. Good Luck!

By Proud_Mummy 3 Years, 10 Months Ago I agree with sarah- thats some good advice!
I think you should do your research too & save for a baby first because trust me they cost you an arm & leg, they are forever needing things from nappies to clothes.. nothing comes cheap these days!! Dont rush into it if you not 100% sure as a child will be with you for the next 18yrs, enjoy yourself while you can because once a baby comes along your lucky if you have a night out or a bath in peace. I had my daughter at 21- my first child- me & my husband wanted to be young parents too so she was planned. We wouldnt change her for the world and wouldnt do anything differntly, we made sure we did our research and saved every little penny we could to get everything we needed & stocked up on all the supply's we needed. Still to this day every little penny we earn near enough goes our on daughter to make sure she has the best in life and has everything she needs & wants. But on the other hand it would of been nice to go on a few holidays by ourself ect & enjoy married life before we concieved her- but im glad the way things worked out for me, its expensive but rewarding!

By iluvandy 3 Years, 10 Months Ago Hey! You are kinda in my shoes! My husband and I just got married last year in October, I'm 20 years old and he is 24. We have calmed down to as far as partying! LOL! but we have our own house everything and we have planned to concieve a child next year around Spring time! But we both want one now! But I'm in school and I will be out next month! YAE! Then I have to get a job and I want to buy me a new car before so if everything goes as we have planned I will definitly start trying next year. But if you guys feel that you can afford one right now then I would go for it! That is the only thing that is holding us back right now is finances! I dont work because I'm in school and he puts in windows, doors, siding, and even builds sun rooms, so he has a good job. But for a little advice I would wait a few months just to make sure you can afford your new house with no problem and go from there. You dont want to put yourself in a hole. You want to be happy and have no worries when you do get pregnant. Well Good luck to you!
